Hey! You can change it by clicking on your profile picture in the upper right, then the icon that represents a person, and finally selecting _Preferences_ in the submenu

I just realized I made a typo in my username which actually should be ARCHEOSSIAN. I cannot seem to see the option of changing my username in the directions mentionned above? HAs something changed since October 2022?  
Thank you!

It remained unchanged, the username is the first option after selecting the Preferences.

Peter, I think he wants to change his **username** , for me (and it sounds like for him) this is not changeable, but the **name** is an editable field.

Good point @Bob3DPO,

@Archeossian is it the username or the name you wish to change?

Indeed! I made a typo and realized that a few days ago. It should be Archeossian. Thank you so much.

I made a typo in my user name. I do not see a way to change this. I see you replied to this person in a direct email. Can you help me change mine?
